<\/a><\/div>\nYou gay gay then I started working on a project. Has to do a project for chemistry involving photography. He wants to try to make deuaguerratypes\u2026 More properly tintypes, The old silver and white portraits that you see in old westerns. They use an emulsion made out of gelatin and silver nitrate. We're going to try and make them duringGabe's school break. One thing we needed was a large format camera. I went up in the attic to try to look for one. No luck But I did find one treasure\u2026<\/p>\n
My old HP 25 scientific calculator from high school. You all know I was a real nerd but never as much a nerd as I was in high school. My parents, who love me very much to this day, wanted me to have the best calculation devices. Be that sliderule or be that the newfangled electronic calculators. I remember my first calculator was something from Texas instrument\u2026 But when I saw the new Hewlett-Packards with their logs and exponents I couldn't stop salivating. I remember this thing got me through so many tests\u2026 It was a thing of beauty, perfect weight perfect balance perfect finger pressure on the buttons that we fit together like hand in glove. It's padded fake leather case fit snugly on my belt. What a fashion statement. (Actually I've never wear to calculator on my belt nor would I ever)<\/p>\n
I found that thing buried in a box marked treasures it even still smelled the same. I showed it to Gabe proudly and he thought I was nuts.<\/p>\n

alright time for bed, more tomorrow.<\/p>\n
\nNight all, night Sam
